Theebaw's State Chariot.

Ex-King Theebaw's golden state
chariot has been taken TO London. IL
is not half so gorgeous as might be ex-
pected from the tastes of the extraya-
CANT Burmese monarch, but is merely
a clumsy reproduction of a European
model, carved, gilt and inlaid with
small bits of glass set like precious
stones. The body of the car is carved
with an elaborate scroll border, and
ornamented with panels traced out in
decorative lines of tiny glass mosaic,
while in the center is a gilt relief of
the symbolic Burmese peacock. In the
front stand a pair of birds resembling
pea-hens, with their necks entwined,
which were evidently surmounted by
an umbrella King Theebaw occupied
the solitary seat on the car, with the
royal umbrella spread over his head.
There was no coachman, the car being
drawn nv led hnllocts.-M y Past

FORCE OF PLANTS.
Insignificant Fungi Capable of Liftinl
Tremendous Weights.

Insignificant Fungi Capable of Lifting
Tremendous Weights.
The force exerted by growing plants
is very great. Fungi are composed of
soft tissues, yet a growing mushroom
has been known to lift large paving
stone. The rootlets of pines and cedars
growing on the sides of rocky decliv-
tiles penetrate narrow crevices in the
rocks and finally by their growth
loosen huge masses and send them
tumbling down the cliff. Years ago
President Clarke. of the Massachusetts
Agricultural College, put pumpkin
into harness and demonstrated that it
was capable of lifting thousands of
pounds. In a cemetery in Hanover a
seed terminated in a crevice beside a
tombstone which contained twenty
cubic feet. The Seeding, now a small
tree, has lifted the stone over five
inches. Not the least wonderful of
phenomena of this class is the
force exerted by the radicle of the
terminating plant. Darwin has
demonstrated that it exerts a force
which, in proportion to its size, is
astonishing. This force the plantlet
utilities in sending its root into the
soil, and the strangest part of the
strange phenomenon is that the little
soft radicle is capable of penetrating
soil very much harder than itself.-M

STYLES FOR CHILDREN.
Description of Some Pretty Dresses and
Cloaks for Little Girls.

Description of Some Pretty Dresses and
Cloaks for Little Girls.
The large establishments show hand
some dresses, frequently of two shades
of silk and velvet combining both
shades. For instance, a dress for
girl of eight had a skirt of tobacco
brown, with Fedora vest of dust color
A long, open sack of velvet of both
colors fell away to disclose the vest,
and was shorter in the back, with
plaits in the side body seams. The
skirt was plated in single box-plaits
some three inches wide at the waist.
Another, of ultramarine blue, had a
vest of sky blue and velvet jacket, faced
with the light shade, which showed at
the edges of the front and in the plaits
A decoration of cords in the light blue
was around the left arms eve. and the
contrast was very pretty. With it was
worn the little Dutch bonnet, the newest
thing for wee folks. 1t has a straight
brim, like a Shaker. only not coming
over the face at all; and high, fiat,
round crown, perfectly smooth, some
times edged with cut beads. Some
times the bonnet has pom-pons, and
sometimes bows of ribbon.
Many of the little cloaks haze short,
Straightforward bodies and full
gathered skirts.
Girls from five to ten wear quite short
dresses, while younger ones wear the
long dresses, which make them look
like walking pictures.-Fdrm and Fire

YES" answered the devoted wife.
'.and as YOU said that / was only to
purchase what we really need, | didn't
invest in a new dress"
That's right, Matilda; you're a wife
to be proud of. It's great thing to
have better half one can trust with
important commissions. Did you buy
any hour?"
mo, John. but bought the lowell
est feather for my bonnet you ever
saw. And it only cost three dollars. y
Great Caesar! You call that a neees-
sity! We can rustic along on corn
meal mush, suppose, so that you can
make your hat outrageous with
feathers. What else did you buy?"
al bought a hanging lamp for the
hallway perfect beauty. Mrs.
o. Hooligan says it is the prettiest one
she ever saw"
"What does she know about hanging
lamps? What does she know about
any thing? Her old shanty is IL
Illuminated with candles and tire-bugs,
and here she sails around giving of a
lot of slack on hanging lamps.
Why doesn't she hire hall and deliver
lecture on electricity and lanterns?
/ suppose you bought bushel of car
tickets, or something else that no fam
lily can be without. How about the
weather strips?"
81 didn't buy them. l bought a lace
cover for the arm chair, though"
Eyes, and / suppose you ordered a
lot of tiled roofing for the cyclone
cave and wall decorations for the hen
house, perfumery for the cow, and a
pair of opera-glasses for the horse,
and a Webster's dictionary for the
baby, and spent the rest of the money
